I'm very excited to see how Kickstarter and siimlar crowdfunding sites Indiegogo in particular have enabled filmmakers to raise money to direct and produce independent films. For decades, this has been the struggle that the indie film and art film industry has faced. It's great to see that crowdfunding has been working with great success, as with the example of Veronica Mars.' Salaam Dunk' is another such film getting funding in this case with Indiegogo as well as a lot of notoriety.
